Comments:
<0> can somebody give me a list of sources for aptitude that has the following packages(mplayer,xmms,pear,php, apache,mysql,mc)
<1> how can i setup compatibility with xv so xvinfo will display something
<2> just hanging at pormpt still gedit no appearing
<2> prompt even
<3> ubotu tell anatole about easysource
<0> ok what is easysource
<4> anatole: Some of the are in the 'universe' archive; others are in 'multiverse'. You can add them by going to GNOME menu -> System -> Administration -> Add Applications
<5> back
<4> hendersonb: Hm
<6> ok now i am getting a GUI and its asking me to select a video mode. my options are 1920x1440, 1920x1200 etc etc etc. this is an older 15" monitor. which one do I want?
<1> xv is what i think i need to get working
<3> anatole: if you read the pm ubotu sent you it will tell you
<4> hendersonb: As a test, can you run 'xdpyinfo'? (Without 'sudo'.)
<1> how can i enable xv options to be compatible for me
<0> for kde?
<7> steeltoes12345, something standard :)
<5> adub, try this first
<3> anatole: for anything its to generate a sources.list
<7> steeltoes12345, something you know works I suppose
<6> 1280x800?
<1> thegladiator k
<5> adub, go to the movie folder first
<1> ok
<2> its strange nailbiter if I run it as myself it comes straight up - but then I can't edit fstab with it - not a huge problem just an annoying one - i can do it with nano but cause everyone uses gedit when i copy/paste the lines it doens't work
<7> steeltoes12345, try it out..it possible to change it later with a command
<6> ok
<6> done
<8> hmm i need some help.. xawtv -hw shows that the driver for my tv card is v4l2 but i need the old v4l ..how do i fix it?
<1> i think if i get xvinfo to display screens then im good cause that is how i got stuff to work in my other laptop
<9> is there a place where i can see everything that will be introduced into dapper?
<6> now im getting the command line again
<10> 'kay.... I've ran fsck on the drive, but it didn't return anything unusual. *But*, when I type out "mount", it tells me, for the same drive, "(rw, errors=remount-ro)". Can anyone tell me what that means?
<7> steeltoes12345, just a command prompt wating now
<4> hendersonb: Does gedit simply hang forever and not show up when you run it as root?
<7> steeltoes12345, k...startx
<6> YA
<1> but thegladiator xvinfo just worked in my other laptop i dont remember having to do anythign extra
<5> adub, right click on the file and then open with
<4> Quinch: That 'errors=remount-ro' means: "if any errors occur, remount the drive read-only and warn the user"
<6> "-bash: startx: command not found
<4> Quinch: There's also 'errors=panic'. That's not as helpful
<5> adub, not sure what xv is not working sorry :(
<10> Oh.
<10> Damn.
<10> So much for fsck, then.
<7> steeltoes12345, ok.. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
<2> nailbiter, i think so i've not left it anymore than about 5 mins - it just sitts at the command prompt waiting - i usually just cancel it so not sure if it ever does eventually appear
<8> could anyone help me out?
<1> its ok
<1> thegladiator what else should i try from there
<5> adub, right click open with -> other
<4> hendersonb: I'm not sure why it'd just hang
<1> ok
<5> adub, ok ? there type the command that I gave
<6> ok it is unpacking right now
<1> ok
<2> nailbiter, yeah i'm confused too especially as it was working a few days ago
<7> steeltoes12345, k...tell me how it goes :)
<4> hendersonb: Ok. Can you do a 'gksudo strace -f gedit'?
<5> adub, remember the command ?
<4> hendersonb: That'll print a trace of what it's doing; check the last few lines of the trace before it hangs
<6> will do. thanks for the help
<7> steeltoes12345, np
<2> nailbiter, 2 secs just checked terminal window again - an error has appeared
<10> Can anyone else tell me what may be causing this? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/550970 Basically, about twenty-three gigs of data vanished from my Linux disk, and the difference between the reported usage of du and df just about matches that number.
<2> nailbiter, anywhere i can paste the errors to let you see?
<5> Quinch, fsck ?
<5> adub, how is it going ?
<10> Gladiator, just did. Didn't report any errors.
<6> ok. its done. im getting the command line again
<7> steeltoes12345, startx
<10> Mind, I just unmounted the drive and typed in fsck -f . Should I have tried any other switches?
<6> "-bash: startx: command not found"
<4> Quinch: Can you do a 'lsof | grep -w deleted | grep -w REG'?
<7> steeltoes12345, doh...!
<6> ya!
<7> steeltoes12345, frustrating :)
<7> steeltoes12345, ok..I'm thinking....
<4> Quinch: On Linux, it's possible to continue to use files after they've been deleted--these anonymous files will hang around until the last process using them quits. The space they use shows up in 'df', but not in 'du'
<11> hey quick cuestion why cant i play or run files via sambA Off a windows pc?
<1> thegladiator no full screen mode
<11> i have to copy them to my hdd first
<7> steeltoes12345, try ... sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
<11> not a bug or probl;em i dont think just wondering why
<12> damian_ you must tell us why
<10> Nailbiter: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/551160 .
<4> damian_: You can use the command-line 'smbmount' utility to mount remote shares as a regular filesystem
<5> adub, click on F button
<12> damian_ that is, what's the error?
<1> yeah did that
<5> what happens ?
<1> what do you think about adding video overlay to options in xorg.conf
<10> Nailbiter, where do I look for them?
<6> ill try that. but from reading this. it looks like ive ran out of disk space. how much disk space is required to install ubuntu?
<13> how good is ubuntu's amd64 implementation compared to other linux distributions? anyone know?
<4> Quinch: From what you've pasted, looks like you don't have any such files
<11> oh and so then i can use say videos or mp3's straight off the windows pc?
<1> same thing the screen goes big screen stays in teh middle
<7> steeltoes12345, around 2 gigs I think?
<4> damian_: Yes
<10> So where does the difference come from?
<7> steeltoes12345, how much you got?
<5> even after using the zoom command ?
<11> cool thanks
<11> and so ubuntu dosent do tis automatically/
<6> this is a 10 gig drive
<4> Quinch: Hm. I don't know. Very mysterious
<14> gotMilk, 64-bit is still "under development" in alot of distros...
<15> Hi all geek
<7> steeltoes12345, hmmm..no other partitions?
<6> no that command doesnt do anything
<11> mad **** thaught it justw wasnt possible
<15> do you dream to linus torvald
<7> steeltoes12345, ok..just trying to remember a command one second
<13> @toma u know distributions which fully/stable support amd64?
<6> i used to have windows 98 installed on this drive, ive erased those partitions. perhaps they are still there though??
<16> hi
<14> gotMilk, ubuntu, gentoo, fedora...not sure about all the others...
<17> The following packages have been kept back:
<18> hi there
<17> The following packages have been kept back:
<14> gotMilk, distrowatch.com would probably have a nice list
<7> steeltoes12345, type ... df ..that should tell you hard drive usage
<17> what does this mean: "The following packages have been kept back:"?
<2> anywhere I can paste an error message i'm getting when trying to rund 'gksudo gedit' for people to have a look at?
<6> also ubuntu will create the linux partitions on its own during the installation right?? or do I have to create them manually?
<5> adub, could you try this ?
<19> does anyone here use ubuntu for software development
<3> DevGet: that means they will not be updated
<20> im working on my new wintendo, its a case that has a selfcontained router, and 2 systems, one runs linux one runs windows, u rin windows on top of linux
<1> try what
<10> Basically, what I did was to copy the files from two partitions from one disk onto the Linux disk, reformatted the first drive, and rebooted. When I looked at the folders where I backed the files up to, one was there, but the other wasn't.
<1> im all eyes
<17> gnomefreak: why?
<5> adub, mplayer -vo xv foo.avi
<3> Ryugi: alot of people do
<6> ok
<17> gnomefreak: are they blocked in a file or something?
<5> adub, i guess xv is not working ...but...
<0> i push "Give me a source.list" from http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic and nothing happens exept that kate it's tryng to open something and it dies
<19> ok
<3> DevGet: i dont know what ubuntu version or what packages or anything else that is installed
<5> adub, i think u dont have the requisite drivers
<3> DevGet: if on dapper more than likely its depends issues
<5> adub, it will be better if you ask in #xorg
<3> or the packages arnt quite ready
<5> adub, if that doesnt work
<17> gnomefreak: dist-upgrade sloved it
<18> i've got a really strange problem.. everytime i try to get on a terminal by pressing ctrl-alt-F1 F2 etc all i get is a black screen and that's it. pc dead
<3> DevGet: than they were kernel update
